In this first episode, an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team uses Skydio X2D to assess the risk, survey the damage, secure the area, and search for survivors of a vehicle borne improvised explosive device (VBIED)
After the area is secure, the team begins a next-generation Sensitive Site Exploitation technique. This is done using Skydio 3D Scan to create a 3D model of the scene from an autonomous collection mission.
After the EOD team passes intel back to the JOC, a special operations team follows a tip to apprehend the bomb-maker who was responsible for the VBIED in the prior scene
As our SOF team completes infil to the suspected area of the bomb-maker, they are forced to prepare for a raid without the benefit of manned ISR support. From an OP, they launch the X2D to conduct a target recon of two suspected sites.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been around since the '60s but what’s new is the wide variety of platforms - from heavy, turbine-powered warbirds - to lightweight, versatile drones capable of many ISR missions. Mark Valentine, president and general manager for global government at Skydio talks about the evolution of defense in this interview with Tom Temin, co-host of The Federal Drive on Federal News Radio.
You’re going to witness an incredible demonstration of truly transformative technology, including: - A live incident response using patrol-led DFR (Drone as First Responder) - An introduction to Skydio NightSense, where you’ll watch Skydio X10 fly autonomously at night - A walk-through of first-of-its-kind capabilities that change the way critical industries complete their work using drones And you'll hear from leaders with NYPD, Pacific Gas & Electric Company and the Kansas Department of Transportation.
Indoor Capture is the newest Skydio 3D Scan mode that is specifically tailored for autonomously scanning large, complex, indoor environments.
Under cover of darkness, the team prepares for a raid on the target they have surveilled throughout the day. As the unit moves in, their sniper team uses X2D’s GPS-based precision night flight and 320p infrared camera to keep eyes on the target and provide overwatch.
This Skydio Original Series tells the story of a team of fictional warfighters as they face five different missions, starting with the response to an explosion in an urban setting, and ending with a night raid on the responsible bomb-maker.
